3 Instructions for Installation Operation Service Failure to follow published installation instructions or any modifications to the product may damage the unit and will void the warranty. Step #2: Branch Circuit Installation Determine the fixture type (Standard, SD or RT) Verify primary input voltage as either 120VAC or 277VAC. NOTE: The BLACK and ORANGE wires are NEVER used together in the same application. Always cap the unused wire. Provide each unit with a single unswitched supply from (normal power) 120 VAC/277 VAC branch circuit used for normal lighting in the area to be illuminated. The wiring should be a permanent installation using metal enclosed wiring raceway. A 13/16 diameter knockout is provided on the top of the recessed or retrofit backbox. If unit is a Remote Test (RT) version, review voltage drop table to determine appropriate wire gauge requirements for the distance between switch plate and fixture. Run wires from Remote Test Switch Plate through the top of the back box and make connections to the corresponding wires on the charger board cradle. Each Remote Test Switch will control only one emergency lighting unit. Note: remote test switch is a normally closed switch if you have an erratic connection the fixture will not CHARGE.

5 Troubleshooting Symptom Unit does not operate when power is lost, or test switch is depressed Unit only operates for a short period Of time Lamp(s) does not energize when in Emergency mode, but door rotates open Possible Corrective Measure(s) Verify AC power is energized to the unit. Verify the battery is properly connected Verify the battery level is at or above 13.8 VDC Verify the unit has charged for 48 hours Allow the unit to fully charge to a nominal battery level of 13.8 VDC, then retest. Charge for 48 hours Remove lamp(s) and check lamp with resistance meter to verify condition. Resistance indicated good lamp. Open (no) resistance indicates bad lamp, replace lamp & retest. Routine Care The batteries used in this model are sealed and require no maintenance, but will benefit from certain procedures. During routine standby operation, charger output fluctuates only slightly in floating the battery at its full-charge voltage. But after an AC failure and subsequent battery discharge, charger output increases greatly to recharge the battery as quickly as cell temperature rise and gas cycling considerations permit. This vigorous charging action also agitates the electrolyte and tends to reverse physical and chemical changes that can slowly occur in a battery that stands for a long period without cycling. It follows that if power failures are infrequent, occasional deliberate cycling may extend battery life. Test Cycling Every month, if there has been no power failure, press the unit test switch for 15 seconds. Once the switch is released, the battery will recharge to full charge condition. Conditioning Cycles Once a year, if power failures have been infrequent or non-existent, perform a full battery conditioning cycle. De-energize the AC circuit to which the unit is connected and let the emergency lights operate for the period of operation for which the unit is listed. Then restore AC power. This puts the battery through a discharge/recharge cycle over its full-intended range, and provides a rigorous test of over-all unit operation. Taking a Unit Out of Service If a unit is to be deliberately taken out of service for an extended period, the battery lead should be disconnected from the charger so that the battery will go into storage in a fully charged condition. Warranty All Concealite fixtures are tested and are guaranteed to be free from defective materials and workmanship for a period of three years from date of shipment under normal operations and proper use. Correction of all defects shall be by replacement or repair (at our option) and shall constitute fulfillment of all manufacturer s obligations. We will not allow any charge for labor, materials, etc that does not have our written approval before the work is begun. Damage incurred in handling or in transit are not covered by this guarantee. Any other warranty, expressed or implied, is hereby void. Modifications to the product or failure to follow installation instructions will void the warranty. Batteries provided as part of this unit s equipment carry a three-year warranty. Failure to fully charge the batteries within 120 days from receipt will void the warranty on the batteries. On Site Painting Instructions 1. The door and frame of the unit have been factory painted with a powder-coated paint with a hard f nish. This finish should be roughened with a coarse steel wool or sandpaper before a new finsh is applied to ensure the paint adheres to the factory finish. 2. When the new finish is applied, extreme care should be taken that a seal is not formed between the door and the frame, which would prevent the door from opening. Also, assure that the paint is not so heavy that it runs into the gearing mechanism. This damage will void the warranty on the unit. 3. If the finish is sprayed on, we suggest that a thin cardboard or plastic strip be inserted between the door and the frame to prevent a paint seal from being formed. 4. After the new finish is applied, a sharp edge such as a single edge razor or utility knife may be inserted in the opening between the door and frame and run around the circumference of the unit to ensure that no seal has been formed. The finish should be completely dry before this step is performed. 5. If the unit is being covered with material (wallpaper, cloth, laminate, etc.), allow the mastic used to apply the covering to completely set up. Use a sharp edge such as single edge razor or a utility knife held at a 20 to 30 degree angle against the frame and run the blade around the frame. Repeat this procedure holding the edge against the door. This will provide a beveled edge that will prevent the material from fraying as the unit operates. Assure that the mastic adhesive does not run or be allowed to coat between door and frame. This will void warranty.

6 Self Diagnostic Option Features The SD (Self-Diagnostic) option makes routine maintenance as effortless as looking at the diagnostic panel. The SD option automatically provides battery exercise and extended testing. The LED panel indicates specif c component status. The self-diagnostic option provides the following features: Monthly battery exercise Battery monitoring Charger monitoring Replacement battery indication LED lamp status The SD self-diagnostic option allows maintenance personnel to monitor system status at a glance. This SD option automatically cycles the unit every days. While it is cycling, the monitoring circuits check the battery to ensure that it will deliver the power needed to maintain the load for a 1Z/x hours. The SD option does not use the lamps to test the battery; rather there is a predetermined resistive load within the option, thus avoiding lamp life reduction. The SD option also recognizes problems while the unit is in a standby mode. During this period, the monitoring circuits check the charger voltage to see if an overcharge or undercharge is occurring. If either an overcharge or undercharge exists, the fault indicator will illuminate. The yellow LED indicates cycling and will only illuminate if the unit is self-testing. The LED stays lit for the duration of the test cycle, normally minutes. The red LED indicates a fault condition. The LED will come on and flash when a fault condition exists. The unit does not have to go through a cycle test to indicate a fault. The circuits are monitoring the charger at all times. The green LED indicates charge and utility power. This LED is on during the standby mode. The test switch is used to test the unit at any time. When a fault condition occurs, the indicator will flash. Once the problem is corrected, the test switch is used to reset the SD circuit.

7 Concealite Self-Diagnostic (SD) System Operation and Troubleshooting Guide The Self Diagnostic (SD) system automatically monitors both battery performance and electronic functions of an emergency lighting unit. Not using the emergency lights during this test greatly improves lamp life, thus increasing the possibility of proper lamp operation. 1. SD System Operation (Refer to Chart 1 for LED Description) a) Upon initial power up, the SD system will indicate a bad or unconnected battery termination. A flashing fault LED will remind the installer to connect the battery. b) During normal operation of the emergency lighting unit, the SD system will monitor the battery charger for proper operation. An over or under charge will be indicated by a flashing fault LED. c) The SD system automatically exercises the battery every days. This test is indicated by having the RX Mode LED on. A ten minute discharge is performed by using a Dummy Load. This exercise assures that the battery is performing properly. A fault LED will indicate if a battery is weak or dead. 2. Trouble Shooting Aid. The following is a guide to determine the cause of a flashing fault LED. The steps must be followed in sequence to properly determine cause. Note: After each step, depress the test switch for approximately two seconds to reset the SD system. If fault LED stays off the problem has been corrected. If not, proceed to the next step. a) Make sure battery connections are connected and free of corrosion; clean terminal if necessary. b) Measure battery voltage. It should be within the following limits: Battery Volts 12V Low 9.60+/-.10 High /-.10 If not within the limits. a) Make sure that the charge LED is on. If not, make sure that power is available to the unit. b) If the battery voltage is low and charge LED is on, replace the charger board. c) If the battery voltage is high, consult factory to determine if charger is out of tolerance or charger board is defective. Reset SD system before performing this test. Fault LED must be off. Discharge unit between ten to ninety minutes by removing AC input. If during this test the fault LED flashes, the battery is weak. Replace battery and repeat test.
